October 10, 2026
Version 1.5 - Log: “The Graph Update” – prior to this update workout stats would display as either a single-stat cards (mostly averages) in a fixed grid, or as a more robust graph portraying changes over time. However, graphs were only displayed for HR and calories, visible only to those with the means and desire to track this data. ALL pertinent workout stats are now viewable as either/or, expandable/collapsible, persistent, and can be rearranged to prioritize what’s most relevant - Exercises: Refactored library table resolves laggy scrolling; also merged Incidence + Replaced columns, now displays as a "Performed/Replaced" ratio - Exercises: Library and Statistics sections now re-ordered, both sections also now collapsable - Profiles: Button moved up to right corner – there is now an inert label where it used to be, for context - Profiles: Rename or reassign any profile as default; limit now also raised from 6 to 10 (not sure why anyone would need to have this many, but now you can) - Settings section reorganized and consolidated. Rest Timer now also adjustable up to 15-sec intervals - Resolved exercise duplication occurring under certain conditions - If an exercise is renamed, all logged workouts that included it under the original name are now updated to reflect this change - Removed rotation lock button from active workout screen – wasn’t working consistently, and seems that Apple improved this behavior in iOS 27 (not sure if this is an actual change or just a vibe) - Optimized for iOS 27 compatibility - Numerous other minor copy/style/UI adjustments - As with most-all updates, release notes also updated and a few changes were made to the curated exercise collection - you’ll see a popup with specifics on first run. Version 1.4(1) - Added Home Screen Quick Actions to quickly share a link to DragonStrength or post the most recent workout to a social platform right from the device’s Home Screen - Added “Rest Timer” button to the active workout screen. Configure in Settings. Tap to trigger a gentle nudge when the selected rest threshold has passed - Added “Pause Workout” capability to the active workout screen. Great for accommodating unexpected interruptions without disrupting HR or calorie data collection - Added watermark to shared workout images, to direct viewers to DragonStrength on the App Store - Capped Dynamic Type enlargement to xLarge to prevent (reduce) mass truncation and overlap throughout the UI - Post-workout summary: HR graph now visually differentiates warmup period (if there is one) from the rest of the workout - Found a bug in the HR tracking pipeline that, under certain conditions, disabled HR tracking for the whole workout depending on user selections on the warmup screen. HR and calorie data will now always be collected during a warmup, but only factored into post-workout metrics if the user chooses. I believe this is now a solved issue but will keep an eye on it and welcome any feedback about unexpected behavior or workout results - The > and Checkmark buttons in the accessory bar of the Active Workout screen now also scroll the workout table horizontally such that the next most likely relevant information becomes visible in frame (name of next exercise and medals + trend graph, respectively) - A few minor updates to the curated exercise database - this will trigger the diff screen on 1st launch for user approval
